If you’re studying for the HSC, you’ll receive application information and guides from the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC). You should familiarise yourself with the entry requirements for UOW.
If you are a recent school leaver who has already completed the HSC, a range of application forms for Undergraduate study are available here. Alternatively you can Apply Online.
There are a few additional factors you should consider when applying for uni, such as:
Early Entry, Extra Points and Additional Entry Schemes
You may also be able to benefit from other special UOW schemes:
- Early Entry – guarantee a spot at uni before sitting the HSC
- Points to UOW – extra points for students who do well in HSC subjects relevant to their degree
- Bonus Points – extra points for students who attended a high school in the Uni's drawing area and regional areas across NSW
- Special access schemes – for those who experienced disadvantage during their school years
Your Plan B - Alternative Entry paths
If you don’t gain direct entry to uni, Wollongong College Australia offers preparation programs, which, when successfully completed, guarantee entry to UOW. There is a range of alternative entry paths to suit where you’re at in life.
Rewards - Scholarships and Special Programs
Firstly, you can get paid to study if you’re a recipient of one of our scholarships! We have many scholarships, some of which reward academic and sporting excellence, community involvement, indigenous students or simply for relocating to Wollongong.
If you’re a high-achieving student and want to get more from your university experience, you may be able to fast-track your degree and benefit from one-on-one mentoring and special access to resources through the Dean’s Scholar Program.
Sound sleep - Accommodation
Living on campus is a great part of the UOW experience, so if you’re from out of town you’ll also need to apply for accommodation in plenty of time.
